10/22 Builds #3 & #4

[RoninPA]

Well, here's the last two builds I did, sorry about the picture quality, too darn cold to take them outside in good light to see the true colors:

This one I Cerakoted the receiver Stainless Steel and the stock is Blue Titanium. I will be mounting a silver colored scope on it before it goes up for sale.






This one really needs the good daylight to see the color of the stock. The stock is a very dark green called Green Beret Green and the barrel and receiver are Multicam Green





Once I get some nice weather I'll take all 4 outside and try to get some better pictures of them (and hopefully shoot them to see how the do, especially the ER Shaw barreled action. Then I'll decide what to do with them.

Very nice!. I have a question about the rifle with the folding stock. Is the barrel threaded 1/2"-28 directly or 1/2"-20 with a 1/2-20 F to 1/2"-28 M adapter? The flash hider seems to stick out a bit farther than normal and looks like it may have an adapter in there.

The reason I ask is I recently bought a new 18" barrel stainless 10/22 with a Hogue stock and a threaded barrel from Davidsons. It came with 1/2"-20 muzzle threading and the adapter I mentioned above. No flash hider was provided but Ruger included thread protectors for both thread patterns.

CDNN was also selling a very similar 10/22 so believe they were intended for the international market but sold here as this configuration is not shown on their web site. I wonder if Ruger had an overrun.

Nope, not threaded at all. That is a flash hider from the John Masen Co. Brownells has both the short and the long - that one is the long one. The just slip on and are held in place with a set screw. Gives it a little pizzazz

Nice builds, thanks for the pics.

As I look at them again I might just pull the folding stock off the one and Cerakote it Multicam Green also to have it match.

Those are nice set ups on both Rugers!

 

[9x19]

Personally, I prefer the contrast of black and green much better than all green.

 

[RoninPA]

It won't be all green, the stock will stay the Green Beret Green, but I'll Cerakote the silver folding part Multicam Green to match the barrel and receiver. Sorry if I wasn't clear about that
